    Hasn't missed a game in two years according to Steve Bruce this morning, yet he still failed it!! Doesn't seem to be general fitness, must be something like a heart murmur or along those lines. All a guess of course. Maybe it's worth us taking a chance, just look at what demba ba went on to do......

    It's a moody shoulder, he's dislocated it 4+ times but not for a few years.

    I blame it on poor medical team up in Hull. At our place all you need to do is cough, works everytime.

    Don't forget Demba Ba failed a medical at Stoke then passed one at West Ham & Chavski!

    George Boyd failed a medical at Nottingham Forest due to an apparent eye condition yet passed one at Hull City. Steve Bruce was consulted on the decision to pull out of signing Austin. I feel sorry for the lad that top flight football has passed him by. I highly doubt we'll be looking to sign him however.

    I think he's worth a try. 25 goals with a gammy shoulder? That'll do nicely...

    You need an extra test if you are playing at Hull as most who live there are World War Z
